摘要：

We previously reported that increased production of prostaglandin E2 by monocytes is a pivotal mechanism in posttrauma immunopathology. Here we characterize monocyte levels of transforming growth factor-beta and examine the effects of elevated transforming growth factor-beta on prostaglandin E2 release by patients' monocytes. Trauma patients' and normals' monocyte supernates (+/- stimulation with muramyl dipeptide) were acid treated and assayed for transforming growth factor-beta using the mink lung-cell bioassay. Alternatively, human transforming growth factor-beta was added to patients' and normals' monocytes and prostaglandin E2 production assayed. Significantly elevated transforming growth factor-beta levels (median = 181.7 pmol/10(6) monocytes) were detected in immunosuppressed patients' monocytes but not immunocompetent trauma patients' (median = 32.0 pM) or normals' (median = 20.4 pM) monocytes. Adding transforming growth factor-beta to monocytes resulted in a significant elevation of prostaglandin E2 levels. Elevated monocyte transforming growth factor-beta levels in trauma patients could be both suppressing T-lymphocyte functions and maintaining elevated monocyte prostaglandin E2 synthesis.
